The Bloor Yorkville Area has their annual IceFest happening on Feb 23-25.
On Friday, the 23rd is the Kick Off event with a Winter Wonderland from 35k lbs of ice carved by artists. Ice Carving Competition on the 24th with a People's Choice Sculpture at 5:15p in the Village of Yorkville park. You can even join the contest by clicking here for details. If you happen to be in the area next week, come out of the cold and check out the IceFest.
One comment we have with this event? Requires you to get the entry form at the desk with no other location (like online for example?). We wonder why this is the case apart from ensuring there are bodies at the event. Wouldn't you want to get information on other people who may be interested in coming to the event or the location maybe - not necessarily this time but at all other times? Isn't this the perfect marketing opportunity to get further information about the tourists visiting the area? Why be specifically Ontario residents only? Are we afraid of having to pay for an extra tax just to have a better program? Hmmm... I wonder.
